Where would I go about getting Powder Coating? Online perhaps?

Nope! Thanks, though. Got it all set up.

Any idea where I could be looking and window shopping for Powder Coats?

powder costing is for sure the way to go, just a little more money then the paint, but way better for your money. like to see some pictures. i got some white paint scheme ideas? what color is the car?

Powdercoating has its ups and downs.

Negatives:
1.) color options/ color matching is going to be difficult

2.) repair of chips and scratches is very difficult

3.) surface finish may have some "orange peel" effect to it depending on thickness.

Positives:

1.) rugged as hell / stands up to abuse

2.) fast turn around

Paint positives

1.) easier to color match

2.) can be easily repaired

3.) easy to strip and change in the future

4.) can have a very flat finish

5.) color options are greater

Paint negatives:

1.) more time needed for prep

2.) price may be more (or less) depending on who does it

Hey La Rockstar

We custom color match our wheels. If you have a look on our site (Signature Wheel Company) the SW03 design are shown with white painted rims which might give you an idea of what yours could look like.

Color matched wheels look amazing!

Cheers,

Signature Wheel Co

I don't know how much experience you have with powder, but It is gaining popularity in the industry. Which means new and more optiopns to choose from. More colors, mixes, and better color matching techniques. My guy can pretty much color match anything. It is also cheaper than paint and never chips.
